Thomas Jefferson Papers

To Thomas Jefferson from Lewis Littlepage, 12 July 1786

From Lewis Littlepage

Warsaw. 12th. July. 1786.

Sir

Having recieved no intelligence from Virginia respecting the affair which Governor Henry entrusted to me, the result of which I had the honor to communicate to your Excellency in Paris, I cannot conceal my uneasiness upon that point, and must entreat you to inform me whether it has as yet been settled to your satisfaction. I at the same time repeat my former offers upon that subject and will with pleasure submit to any inconvenience rather than expose you to even a delay which may be embarrassing.

Permit me at the same time to assure you of the high sense of gratitude which I entertain for your generous and friendly conduct upon this occasion, added to the respect and veneration with which I have the honor to be your Excellency’s most obedient and most humble Servant,

Lewis Littlepage

RC (DLC); endorsed. Noted in SJL as received 3 Sep. 1786.
